The Paleo diet business......

Former NFL guard John Welbourn eats like a caveman, and he’s happy to share information about how good that feels.

Welbourn follows a Paleo diet, which aims to mimic what our earliest ancestors ate. Cavemen and women were hunters and gatherers, eating what they could find or kill. Meat, seafood, fruit and nuts were their regular diet. There were no chemicals, nothing artificial in their food.

Those who follow the Paleo diet believe that it’s more natural. They claim that it naturally regulates hormone and insulin levels. They feel more energy.

John Welbourn believes in it so much that he’s co-founded a mail order company, Paleo Brands, Inc., that supplies gourmet freeze-dried Paleo meals.
